- 1 shallot diced
- 4 cloves garlic diced
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
- 1 quart 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon pesto
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 10 oz refrigerated tortellini
- 2 cups fresh kale roughly chopped with stems removed
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- Parmesan cheese for serving
In a large soup pot, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil on medium heat. Sauté the garlic and shallot until fragrant and the shallots begin to get translucent - about 3 - 5 minutes.
Add in the tomato paste and cook for another 3 - 5 minutes to caramelize the paste a little.
Then add in the chicken broth, crushed tomatoes, pesto, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine and turn your heat to high to bring it to a boil.
Once it's boiling, add the tortellini and cook for 3 minutes, then stir in the kale.
Finish with the heavy cream and serve with parmesan cheese.
